Memories of Dr. Seuss - with Grace

of golden leaves in chains of Autumn
twirling, falling bewitched in silence  
 
fluttery leaves falling to the ground
back to the start of divine creation
 
inspiring the mind and will of the heart
and the gathering of the wind-seeking
 
seeking solace in past promises of embrace
pledges untested as frail as rainbow bridges
 
in nocturne's ears of vying gales listening  
to withering willows at the window sill
 
slumber beckons from downy pillows
curtain falls with unrestrained melodies
 
echoing through the enchanting glades
with the flames of Autumn's haze
 
peace descends with shimmery mists
with nature's gentle soothing lullabies
 
of lullabies and peace of mind in nature's  
bloom of tranquil slumbering dreams
 
in the energy of the lyrical golden hosts
standing majestic in the tapestry's beauty  
 
falling bewitched in silence to find my soul
a scented dream in memories of Dr. Seuss
